NACTEL Offers Advancement Opportunities in Telecom

Articles

Are you looking to advance your career in the telecommunications industry?

Pace University, which offers the National Coalition for Telecommunications Education Learning program, will host a Virtual Open House on June 19 for those who’d like to learn more.

The NACTEL program allows IBEW members working in the telecommunications industry to earn an associate, bachelor’s or master’s degree by using an online only curriculum and without interrupting their careers. Eleven IBEW members earned a degree through the program in 2017.

Founded in 1999, NACTEL is a coalition of four of the nation’s leading telecommunications companies – AT&T, Verizon, Frontier and CenturyLink – along with the IBEW and Communications Workers of America, which also has telecommunications workers among its membership. Tuition assistance usually is available from the member’s employer.
